"Cape Grace, originally opened in 1996, has recently undergone a major rejuvenation under Fairmont Hotels & Resorts. The redesign, led by 1508 London, brings a timeless and elegant atmosphere, with contemporary Chesterfields, wingback chairs, and geometric chandeliers. The hotel features 112 rooms and suites, some with balconies or terraces, and a decor inspired by Cape Town's history and culture. The hotel also offers an impressive in-house art collection, a new restaurant called Heirloom by head chef Gregory Czarnecki, and various amenities for multigenerational travelers. The service remains impeccable, and the hotel is accessible to guests with limited mobility. The Bascule Bar will reopen in June 2024 with a new look and menu." - Richard Holmes
